Line drills have finished for now and it’s in to some repeat sprints 

the new players split from the main group, a couple of academy kids joining in, both solid sized lads 

Bedford and Chandler have gone hat free. Sparrow the backwards visor. Jordon the regular visor. The rest with the white caps, Bradkte the only one going backwards .

From the main group Spargo, Fritsch, Wagner, Hibberd and JoelSmith are backwards cap guys

DS, you are setting a whole new training report genre.

Originality par excellence. Its a game changer. 

Going to be very difficult for others to follow.

Tossing or turning whether to go with this in a report because I don't want to be premature, nor do I want to get others overly excited. But I guess it's December so even I can be positive. I'll

Any information posted in the training thread makes my job easier.

In fairness most of those guys are recovering from post season surgeries. Clarry had both shoulders worked on. At least they're all running and keeping their fitness base up.

Excellent reporting as per usual @DeeSpencer. 

Were the rehab group just running laps? Were any of them doing ball work (of the non contact variety obviously)?

I think I saw all but Lever, Vanders, Oscar do ball work. 

Melk and Hore who seem teamed up, as well as Hunt did kick to kick in a triangle.

Others with some kick to kick and handball stuff.

I am interested to know how they will train for the 6:6:6.  (I know the devil is in the detail, but it seems like on name alone, this system should suit the Demons?)

I would be keen to hear if we are doing specific drills for this, or if this will come much later just before JLT??

I was idly watching the History of the Eagles the other night when Glenn Frey said we are the best band in the world but need to get Joe Walsh to join to give us more balls and we will be AWESOME. I thought to myself "Steven May...".

Tmac appears to have put on size. Has his right elbow strapped up. Did he have an issue with this during the season?

Probably strained lifting his wallet Mr. Shadow.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
